L`oreal preference mousse hair dye

Has anybody tried yet and is it any good. I have bought today despite never dyeing my hair. im always scared that it will be a disaster, it seems pretty simple to apply in a mousse form. please any views would be appriciated...

I used it (if it's the re-useable one). I won't be buying it again. It didn't really colour my hair properly and was really hard to wash out. I colour my hair frequently (usually with the John Frieda mousse) and have never experienced problems washing dye out.

Both times I washed it for ages, but it left my hair feeling really greasy and took two or three washes to get rid of the greasiness. Sorry not to have more positive feedback for you!

I bought this too when I saw it on offer in boots. I didn't like it. I'm very dark and it didn't really cover my grey (not even as well as casting semi) and left my hair feeling really tacky. Have a bit left to touch up roots but won't be buying again. Unless I did something wrong?

Did it this morning. Even on a pixie crop you have to use loads. I had to keep going over the front of my hair as I could see it wasn't taking. I used the dark brunette one as I have dark ash brown hair with grey and the medium brown looked too warm. It is now black.

Deep joy. I am hoping for some fade out over the next couple of days. I have shampooed it twice after colouring to get rid of the strange residue.

One other point - it really stinks. Sort of eye watering and eggy. Window open job. I won't be bothering again.

I tried it 2 weeks ago. Used the whole can as I wanted to see how much was in there and whether it would last for applications. Shoulderlength hair. The colour hasn't really taken and will need to colour again as there is still grey .

I wouldn't go with the 10 minute ones as they tend to over darken. Also it is really easy to go over the time by the time you have done the roots and worked around. The lasting power once you have done it is rubbish too. It washes straight off the greys within 3 washes/days.

If your greys aren't too resistant then Nice n Easy is quite good. Go for a shade lighter than you think though.

The new L'oreal recital preference formulation is absolutely rubbish. I have tried several shades and not one has turned out as it should. The grey coverage is useless and the colours brassy. Such a shame as it used to be good.

Excellence is still good but the colours are very limited.

Hair dyes are quite rubbish at the mo over all.

I tried a Revlon one which isn't available in this country and that was good.

I have been using the L'oreal 10 minute ones for at least 18 months but it is harder to find them in Boots now. I was unsure at first whether they would cover the grey bits with it being only 10 minutes but it did. Colour was good to.

Used to buy 2 when on special offer. Going to have a good look tomorrow as need to colour again before work on Monday.
